PizzaExpress | Turning 60 never tasted so good
To celebrate its 60th year, PizzaExpress has launched a new menu, featuring re-imagined fan favourites, available from 11th March.
In homage to its milestone year, PizzaExpress has created their most exciting menu yet, which includes a new Queen Margherita pizza, with a whole ball of creamy burrata, as well as two new ‘Blazing Hot’ and ‘Golden Caramel Chocolate’ Dough Ball variants. Plus, enjoy PizzaExpress’ celebratory set menu, with any starter and classic pizza available for just £19.65.
Its new menu sees the arrival of the Queen Margherita – a twist on everyone’s favourite Margherita, the all-new pizza is gaining a crown for the birthday, with an entire ball of creamy burrata sitting atop the delicious garlic and mozzarella creation pizza fans know and love.
Additionally, the innovative menu features two exciting new takes on its iconic Dough Balls. Enter Blazing Hot Dough Balls – in collaboration with Sauce Shop, the pair of brands have created PizzaExpress’ hottest-ever Dough Balls, coated in irresistible melted garlic butter and packed with the heat of Sauce Shop’s Original Hot Sauce. These fiery balls of dough really pack a punch and come served with an extra side of dipping sauce for those who like it extra spicy.
For a sweet take on this fan favourite dish, PizzaExpress’ Golden Caramel Chocolate Dough Balls are the perfect birthday tribute (move aside traditional birthday cakes!) – an indulgent dessert paired with salted caramel sauce and caramel chocolate dip, finished with a touch of gold dust for added celebratory flair.
From Dough Balls to classic pizzas, PizzaExpress is celebrating 60 years of iconic flavours with a bold new menu, and the excitement doesn’t stop there with four further creations giving nod to the brands inception. Back in 1965, after its founder, Peter Boizot, returned from Italy and struggled to find a proper pizza in London, he created PizzaExpress – so to further mark the celebrations, the brand has created four dishes in ode to Italy, each celebrating the flavours of a specific region:
• Romana Calabrian Hot – A fiery fiesta of spicy ‘nduja, pepperoni, hot red chilli and tomato, finished with a drizzle of hot honey – the perfect combination of sweet and heat.
• Romana Lombardy Speciale – A delightfully fresh pizza for spring, featuring bresaola, Italian artichokes, and peppery rocket on a bechamel base, topped with a truffle and lemon dressing and shavings of Gran Milano.
• Romana Spicy Melanzane – Chargrilled aubergines, tomato, garlic, smoky chilli and jalapeno peppers with a sprinkling of vegan mozzarella. It joins the menu where at least 50% of the options are already vegan or vegetarian.
• Meatballs Al Forno – Tender beef meatballs baked in a rich tomato and garlic sauce with just a hint of chilli, topped with Gran Milano and a side of toasted Dough Sticks.
Toasting to 60 years, PizzaExpress has launched a special range of drinks, including a second collaboration with Meantime Brewing Company, creating the Birthday Brew IPA, which features peachy tropical flavours, with the British brewing company – designed to perfectly accompany the new menu.
Paula Mackenzie, CEO at PizzaExpress, said: “For 60 years, PizzaExpress has been serving up iconic dishes, and so we’re excited to give pizza aficionados a slice of their favourites with a bold new twist. From the indulgent Queen Margherita to fiery Blazing Hot Dough Balls, our new menu celebrates everything iconic about the brand, reimagined.”
What’s more, to mark its birthday, fans can enjoy PizzaExpress’ set menu, with any starter and classic pizza available for just £19.65 when dining in.
PizzaExpress’ new menu will launch nationwide on Tuesday 11th March. To book, please visit our pizzaexpress.com.
